Who needs female runners when you can coop with the guys?

• Daniel Hansson and Jonny Andersson improved Marlo and Fabian's easy 100% of e1m1 by one second to get 0:33. Geez that's the 66th demo on this level, how many more can people do !?!
• Evan convinced his friends Brad and David to play some Quake. They did a 3 player easy 100% on e1m5 in 0:32, one second faster than the two player.
• Evan and I did a crazy nightmare 100% of e4m5 in 2:04, 33 seconds faster than the single player. Beware the zombie gibs.
• We also did an easy 100% of ikspq4 in 1:46, 25 seconds faster than the single player.
• Robert and Rickard Axelsson did the two player run on ikspq1. First they did it in 0:34 on easy, then 0:34 on nightmare, and then they went back and got 0:33 on easy!
• DanielH and JonnyA also improved Robert and Rickard's easy run of pg1 by nine seconds to get 1:12.
• And then did an easy 100% of coagula2 in 0:56, only two seconds slower than their 3 player.
• Since they dont know when to stop, D&J also did demos on escape. They did the easy run in 0:48 (0:50) and the easy 100% in 0:52 (1:08).

For those bound to complain: of course I dont mean what I say, anyone is welcome to join in the madness that is Quake running!

And now for those people who play alone :)

• Daniel Hansson improved Aleksander Osipov's easy run of e3m5 by one second, bringing the time under one minute, to 0:59.
• He also improved the nightmare run by one second to get 1:01.
• But Jozsef had already done it in 1:00! (I'm posting both because Jozsef sent his in later than Daniel)
• I'm starting to think Daniel did half the demos in this update... He also did an easy run of placebo in 1:59, seven seconds faster than Thomas Bergendorff.
• Jozsef Szalontai improved his run of badland1 by one second to get a time of 1:01.
• Somebody annoying *cough* ken *cough* did an easy 100% of coagula2 in 1:02, beating out Richard Skidmore by nine seconds.
• Jonny Andersson improved his previous easy 100% of the pit (Attila's map) by two seconds to get 2:22.
• Timo Nieminen figured out how to change levels from e2m3 :) ... and improved Daniel Hansson's nightmare run of e2m4 by four seconds to get 0:52.
• One of the other Daniels--Daniel Andersson--improved his nightmare run of czg01 by four seconds to get 1:54.
• Andrey Stepanov finally filled the hole for the nightmare run of pg1 by getting a time of 3:44. BTW pg2 NR is still free as well!
• Andrey also did a marathon easy run through the Phantasmal Garisson episode in a time of 4:58.
• Daniel (back to Hansson) improved Richard's nightmare 100% of czg01 by a big 34 seconds to get 3:26.
• Richard felt too many of his demos were being beaten for this update, so he did one of his own (OK, probably not the reason). He improved his nightmare 100% of coagula2 by 29 seconds to get 1:51.
• And finally, Daniel (heh i was right) improved his own marathon run through the czg07 pak by five seconds to get 2:49.

The next 'Run of the Whenever' will be posted early this week. Also, my page has been updated with more cheated demos!

Daniel Hansson's normal amount.

• Easy run Marathon of CZG07 in 2:54, 12 seconds faster than his previous time.
• Easy run of CZG01 in 1:44, 7 seconds faster than his previous time.
• Easy run of CZG07A in 1:23, 3 seconds faster than his previous time with a faster arch jump.
• Easy run of GATORDIV in 1:01, 1 second faster than Matthias's old demo.

Martin Selinus improved his previous Easy 100% of E3M2 by 5 seconds to get 0:54, the end just plain kicks ass.

Thomas Stubgaard improved his previous Nightmare 100% of E3M3 by 2 seconds to get 2:02, not enough nails!

Daniel Andersson did a Nightmare run of CZG01 in 1:58, 12 seconds faster than Basil's time.

Cooperative Demos:

Daniel Hansson, Carl Tholin and Sara Hansson did the Nightmare 100% of COAGULA2 in 1:15, this demo goes down in history as the first Quake speed run to ever be done by a woman!

Daniel Hansson, Jonny Anderson and Ludvig Sjöstrand did the Easy 100% of COAGULA2 in 0:54, perfect level for mad coops.

Robert Axelsson and Rebecca Axelsson (all Axelsson kids start with an 'R') did the Easy 100% of JZB1 in 0:14.

Robert Axelsson and Rebecca Axelsson also did the Nightmare 100% of JZB1 in 0:27.

Robert Axelsson and Rickard Axelsson did the Nightmare run of JZB1 in 0:11, nice run.

Robert and Rickard also did the Nightmare 100% of JZB3 in 0:20, also very nice.

Nolan Pflug and Thomas Stubgaard filled in the Nightmare 100% of E1M4 in 2:05, Thomas was owned.

Nolan Pflug and myself have improved the Easy run of ZER1M1 by 8 seconds to get 0:32.

Daniel Hansson and Jonny Andersson improved their old Easy run of NETWORLD by 9 seconds to get 1:00.

Just a few demos for your viewing pleasure....

• Peter Horvath did the Nightmare 100% of E4M1 in 0:58, 11 seconds faster than his previous record from '98.
  There's a bug in Quake which allows you to shoot the Nailgun after you have exited the intermission screen, which Peter made great use of to kill the last monster. Read his txt file for more details!
• Evan Wagner did the Easy 100% of ZER1M1 in 0:51, 3 seconds faster than the record he did a few days ago. /me like the sound of chainsaw ripping through grunts :)
• Evan hooked up with Nolan to make a coop of ZER1M1 in 0:39, 1 second faster than Evan & Cameron's Easy coop RUN....hmmmm?
• Hannu Kankaanpää did the Easy 100% of A3 (The Journey Home) in 2:53, 6 seconds faster than his previous record. Nice map.
• Arturo Garcia Lasca did Easy run of Dextromethorphan in 0:14, 3 seconds faster than Stefan. Monster cooperation is needed to make this trick work.
• He also did the Nightmare run of Darkness Diabolical in 0:38, 2 seconds faster than Justin.

Rumour has it that the MP-Crew is trying to convince Daniel Hanssons sister to do a coop with them. If there's any truth in that rumour she will be the first female ever to have a Quake record! It would be fun to have a chick on sda wouldn't it.... (personally I would love to read her profile :) Go for it Sara......

If some of you for some reason didn't get the point in Evan's headline (I didn't get it) in the previous update, check out this link to get an idea of what it was about :)

Nolan sends word that he has updated the Dzip site with new info. If you haven't download Dzip for some stoooopit reason, then do it now!

First off I'd like to remind everyone to try and fill in the blanks at my site. There are still plenty of holes, and plenty of runners who haven't even tried a cheated run. I only have two cheated demos to update so far so until I get more I can't update!

Single Player Demos:

Robert Axelsson went nutz0rs in this update.

• Easy run of EVILWRLD in 0:30, 2 seconds faster than Ilkka with a cool ogre-gj.
  
• Easy run of P_SE_3B in 0:27, 1 second faster than Justin.
• Nightmare run of ELEKTRA in 0:17, 1 second faster than Ilkka.
  
• Nightmare run of EVILWRLD in 0:32, 5 seconds faster than Justin. Damn this looked tough!
  

And of course what update would be complete without demos from Mads-Peter Stubgaard.

• Nightmare 100% of BLACK1 in 4:03, 26 seconds faster than Marlo! Owned.
  
• Nightmare 100% of RTD in 2:32, 1 second faster than his semi-old demo.
  

Richard Skidmore is back up in the weezy.

• Easy 100% of COAGULA2 in 1:11, 8 seconds faster than Ken.
  
• Nightmare 100% of COAGULA2 in 2:20, 112 seconds faster than Fredrik! Holy shysties.
  

My least favorite Quake player Jozsef Szlontai has improved MY E2M6 Easy run by 1 second to get 1:15. Jozsef, I thought you loved me! How could you do such a thing! Someday I will get that fiend-push over the bar and own joo :)

Hannu Kankaanpää improved Justin's Easy 100% of A3 by 9 seconds to get 2:59. Justin is probably too scared to fight back.

Valeriy Burmistrov 'The mad Russian' improved his own Easy 100% of JZB3 by 1 second to get 0:15. This run is getting damn close to optimum I would say.

Nolan 'Mad H4ck3r' Pflug improved Ilkka's Nightmare 100% of ZER1M3 by 88 seconds to get 4:47. Yet another great download from the man who brought us speed running.

Martin Selinus continues his bashing on Markus by improving his Nightmare run of Episode 4 by 8 seconds to get 3:31. Fight back Markus!

Marlo Galinski has finally decided he can't live without Quake so he dusted off his keyboard and did an Easy 100% of Episode 2! He improved his own time 23 seconds to get 12:36.

Finally, I have improved Marlo's Easy 100% of ZER1M1 by 1 second to get 0:54. I just got a better time an hour ago but I'm trying for even more!

Cooperative Demos:

Robert Axelsson and Rickard Axelsson filled in some Prodigy Special Edition cooperative demos.

• Easy run of P_SE_3B in 0:25, that damn knight is annoying!
  
• Nightmare run of P_SE_3B in 0:29, gotta love that end part.
  
• Easy run/100% of P_SE_XXX in 1:15, watch this now!

Thank you to everyone who participated in contest #1! The results have been posted on the contest page, which you can now find on the navigation menu! I plan on posting contest #2 early next week; now I just need to make another fun map :)

Because Nolan is on vacation you will have to log on to my FTP to get demos that aren't posted yet. All the log on information is the same, and the link is under 'new demos' on the menu.

'Run of the Whenever the hell I post one' is coming along great. Results will be posted tomorow night, so send in those demos!

Now, here's your update all you ungrateful bastards.

Thomas Stubgaard, better known as Stubby has done some great demos.

• Nightmare 100% of E2M1 in 1:30, 1 second faster than Justin. Seemed like it should have been more!
• Nightmare 100% of E4M3 in 3:56, 12 seconds faster than his previous record GET THIS NOW!!!

Daniel Hansson is still climbing the ranks at SDA.

• Easy run of A3 in 1:03. Improved Shambler's just-made 1:05, damn :(
• Nightmare run of A3 in 1:08, 6 seconds faster than his 1:14 he sent a little before.

My favorite player, Jozsef Szlontai has done a couple of runs also.

• Nightmare run of CHESSP1 in 0:31, new to the tables.
• Nightmare 100% of PHALLUSY in 1:13, 5 seconds faster than his previous time.

Robert Axelsson, when not playing 'fotball' (as he calls it) made some more records.

• Nightmare run of D204 in 0:25, 2 seconds faster than Justin.
• Nightmare run of H2M2 in 0:29, 1 second faster than the weeddmaster.
• Nightmare run of HOTEL in 0:24, 1 second faster than his just-sent 0:25.

Daniel Magnusson has done an awesome Nightmare 100% of E1M1 in 1:05, 2 seconds faster than his previous record! I dare say that it's close to optimised now :)

Nolan Pflug (not 'Peeflug', it's 'floog') did another Zerstorer run! This time he has done the Easy 100% of Z3 in 4:13, 1 minute and 12 seconds faster than Ilkka! Very cool demo, of course, all of his demos are.

Ingmar Poerner has done a Nightmare run of PIT in 1:11, 21 seconds faster than Daniel's 1:32.

The biggest pimp on earth, Mads-Peter Stubgaard is back! This time he has conquered his previous record of Black1 by 4 seconds to get 1:09.

Fredrik Lindblom has done a Nightmare 100% of COAGULA2 in 4:12, new to the tables.

Valeriy Burmistrov, probably the only Russian speed-runner has done the Nightmare 100% of PG4 in 0:20, 2 seconds faster than Arturo.

Martin Selinus or 'baby Horvath' has sent in another marathon. This time he has improved Sergi's Easy run of Episode-2 by 4 seconds to get 3:45.

Cooperative Demos:

Cameron Engles (call him 'fools') and my very own self (damn I've gotta take a piss) have done some demos.

• Easy 100% of COLONY improved by 17 seconds to get 1:01.
• Easy 100% of PIT in 1:23, new to the tables. Read my interesting point in the .txt.

The 'heavy metal' brothers Robert and Rickard Axelsson have done a couple of coops.

• Nightmare run of HIPDM1 in 0:18, new to the tables.
• Nightmare run of E2M7 in 0:34, 1 second faster than their previous time.

Daniel Hansson and Daniel Andersson, better known as D&D have made coop demos.

• Easy run of CLIMB in 0:24, new to the tables.
• Nightmare run of RD1M3 in 0:34, 3 seconds faster than Daniel and Mikael's demo.

Nolan and Thomas have done the demo nobody else would do! Nightmare 100% of E3M6 in 3:41, now do E4M8 :)

Peter Horvath (Mr. "I'm so much better than anyone else.") and Atilla Csernyik have improved the Easy run of PIT by 2 seconds to get 0:19.

The MP-Crew have yet again raped SDA with too many demos.

• 5-Player Nightmare 100% of E1M1 in 0:33, 6 seconds faster than their previous!
• 2-Player Easy 100% of E2M5 in 0:46, 5 seconds faster than Carl & Daniel's previous.
• 3-Player Easy run of CZG02 in 1:34, 7 seconds faster than the 2-player.
• 4-Player Easy 100% of CZG7B in 1:49, lots of mayhem! I love this demo!

Nolan is busy, Evan should be ashamed of himself as he didn't do the update he was supposed to, Justin is probably high on something and I'm about to drink a helluva lot a beers, so this update is a little sparse, but stay tuned for more demos soon........sounds like something you've heard before huh

• Martin Selinus went nuts and did a run through all of quake in the blistering time of 14:02, improving his previous record by 1 minute. When I was at Martin's age I played Tetris on my dad's 286 with a brown/orange monitor :P
• While he worked on his marathon through all of quake he improved his own time in episode4 by 1 second to get 3:10. This is not the ep4 portion of the eall mind you... Baby Horvath is proving himself better and better all the time.
• Nolan Pflug did an EH through all of the Zerstörer episode in 21:45. It's sad that no-one except Nolan plays this mission pack. Give it a try you guys!
• Daniel Hansson did the EH through all of CZG7 in 18:51. I'm still amazed by the design of this mission pack. Why hasn't id software hired Christian Grawert yet?

Check the player profiles everynow and then. There's some new ones and some of them has been updated with new info as well, including my own! If you have a hard time finding the link to the profiles it's on the buttom of the Tables section!

Nolan's FTP will be out for a week due to vacation at his parents. Finally he will get some descent food :)

Since nobody wants to update and I dont have much time, I'm going to just update the single player demos on easy skill in this update...

• Ingmar Poerner did his first demo in a long time; the easy run of the recently added "The Pit" in a time of 0:58, and the next day he improved it to get 0:54.
• Jonny Andersson did the easy 100% of the pit in 2:24.
• Jonny improved Shambler's run of chessp1 by one second to get 0:27, but then Jozsef Szalontai came in and got a 0:25.
• Arturo Garcia Lasca did the easy 100% of chessp1 in 1:08.
• Fredrik Linblom did the easy 100% of coagula2 in 1:39, but Arturo came in and beat that by 20 seconds to get 1:19.
• Martin Selinus improved his previous run of e1m6-the long way, by one second to get an amazing time of 0:24.
• Robert Axelsson improved Chris Longden's old run of e2m7 by one second to get 0:33.
• Robert also improved Attila Csernyik's run of doom2_04 by one second to get 0:24.
• Robert improved Justin Fleck's run of hotel by two seconds to get 0:23.
• Carl Tholin improved Martin's previous run of czg07b by two seconds to get 0:36.
• Carl improved my run of polygon2-the long way, by six seconds to get 0:49 with the same three grenade jumps...
• Carl reclaimed the easy 100% of elektra from Ilkka by improving his demo by three seconds, getting a time of 1:01.
• Daniel Hansson improved Shambler's original run of a3 by 13 seconds to get 1:13.
• Daniel Hansson improved his previous run of badland2 by one second to get 2:32.
• Mads-Peter Stubgaard improved his previous easy 100% of 4fiffy3 by six seconds to get 2:28.
• Jozsef Szalontai got 1:07 for the easy 100% of phallusy.
• Justin Fleck improved Marlo's easy 100% of undrwrld by two seconds to get 2:00.

Also, the cheated quake page has been updated.

Seeing as Gerald is out of commission I have decided to post a small contest for the masses. The object is to kill all the monsters in this level on easy skill and exit as soon as possible, using this map. The level was built by me in about two hours so it's quite pointless, but it is amusing. All your demos must be recorded using QdQStats and sent to me. Good luck running, the winner gets a congatulations email from Nolan, yaay.

Results will be posted at 3/05/01

My computer has yet again been struck by a virus (probably from all my warez). I've had to reformat my entire drive and I couldn't even gain access to Windows to save the latest cheated demos that were submitted. Please check the cheated quake page and submit to me any demos that you may have sent. Also, I even received a demo from Will Marsh (he is still alive!), but that bastard Jozsef improved it before I could even post Will's :)

Just a note that I forgot to mention when I added chessp1 two updates ago. There's a bug in the map so that you can't get 100% kills on easy... there's one that's impossible to get so the max is 28/29.

Coagula2 seems to be quite popular already, and why shouldn't it be, it's an awesome speedrunning map! It would be fun if more people followed Tim's and Attila's example and made maps built especially for speedrunning purposes (hint hint :)

Let's start off with demos done on coagula2:

• Carl did the ER in 0:11, 7 seconds faster than Shambler's run.
• But Baby Horvath (Martin) wasn't satisfied, he decided to do 0:10, which is a whole fat second faster than Carl. Way to go Martin!
• Robert did the NR in 0:15, using a different route than Carl and Martin.
• With Carl's route he was able to do 0:11, equalling his easy run. Who will be the first to do 0:10 in nightmare?

Of course no update without a few demos on CZG7:

• Daniel Hansson did the EH of czg7b in 4:16, 13 seconds faster than himself.
• He filled the blank spot of the NH too in a time of 7:50.
• Nolan did a very cool 100% marathon through CZG7 on nightmare in 21:47. All mission packs should be as cool as this one!
• While he did his marathon he improved Stefan's NH of czg7a by 51 seconds to get a time of 6:02. Very nice indeed.

It rarely happens that we're able to post 4 demos from the Rogue pack in the same update:

• Evan owned Ilkka bigtime by doing the ER of r1m3, 6 seconds faster to get 0:20.
• He did the NR too, 3 seconds faster to get 0:20. Damn nice demos!
• Robert did the ER of the boss level in 0:28, 3 seconds faster than Carl Lloyd-Parker's old demo.
• He did the NR as well in 0:50, which is 14 seconds faster than Carl too.

Evan's favorite speeder Jozsef did two id runs which kick major ass:

• He did the ER of e2m1 using the route that was intented by id software. He improved Ilkka's run by 1 seconds to get 0:45. I like this one alot!
• He managed to do the NR of e4m8 1 seconds faster than the ER and he beat his own record by 1 second too to get 0:45. It's getting close to be optimized.

And now on to the rest of the demos which doesn't fit in anywhere else:

• Shambler improved his old ER on z5 by 11 seconds to get 1:17. Nice trick in this one!
• Justin did the NH of bb5 in 4:28, 146 seconds faster than Stefan!!!!
• Valeriy did the NR of ik3 in 0:16, 1 second faster than Justin.
• Evan and his buddy Cameron did the ER on the newly added Pit map in 0:21. Cool trick alert....
• They also did the NR in 0:28. Same as above :)

Two new made-with-speedrunning-in-mind maps have been released at the same time. What are the odds of that?

• The first is coagula2-flesh by Elek, with a style similar to the first coagula. Shambler did an easy run in 0:18 when he reviewed it, but Evan has improved it already... but not enough he says :)
• Secondly is a map by speedrunner Attila Csernyik called The Pit. It's a medium sized map with some custom textures and interesting design.
• And I decided to add one of the maps that Shambler recently improved his personal speedrun on. chessp1 is a small metal map. Shambler's new easy run is in 0:28. I decided to do the Nightmare 100% and got it in a time of 1:28.

Now shut up and get running... Demos sent in the past few days will be posted later.

Once again, the site previously known as 'Quake done Naked' has been updated with some great new demos. Among them is an incredible demo by Jozsef Szalontai, get this demo now!

Also, if you haven't noticed Nolan and I have made some changes to the side menu. Old sites such as Mineral's and RDE are now available through the links section. Finally, QDN has just been renamed to my name, windlash.

Daniel Hansson and Mikael Woolfe did a Nightmare run of RD1M3 in 0:37, Jesse would be proud.

The Cheated Quake page has been updated with some new demos for you. If you have any time to record a cheated demo then please do! There are still many holes in the tables and there is nothing quite like a Nightmare 100% with all weapons and god-mode!

Single-Player Demos:

My favorite Quake player Jozsef Szalontai has done a few demos.

After many hours of work on the latest and most impressive release of Dzip Nolan has finished version 2.5. The new version adds a host of new features to the already easy-to-use and free (although Nolan will accept your money) compression program. Among the most important of new features is demo extraction that is 4 times faster; here's the other new features.

• Download is now an install program
• Smaller exe/dll sizes
• Extraction of Quake demo files now 4x or more faster
• Added optional large toolbar
• Self extracting exe files work above 256mb, have less overhead, and warn when there's extraction problems
• Fixed all issues related to path column, including sort
• Settings are stored on a per-user basis if you use a multi-user machine
• Sped up opening very large .dz files
• Fixed problems where commands were selectable when they shouldn't be
• Added sort by extension
• Changed the tooltips to be a bit more descriptive

Head on over to Dzip page to grab the latest and greatest version!

Also, I have updated the QDN page with a lot of cheated demos from Jozsef and others, be sure to check it out.

Well, here we go again...another bunch of CZG demos:

• Daniel Hansson did the ER on czg01 in 1:51. Nice.
• Daniel also did the ER on czg7a in 1:26, 6 seconds faster than his previous record.
• And of course he couldn't keep his greasy hands off the nightmare run too. He did it in 1:40. Too many monsters to survive in his own opinion!
• Martin Selinus send in two demos of his usual standards. czg7b ER in 0:38, 1 sec. faster than Evan, and czg7c NR in 0:32. Download now!!
• Daniel Andersson decided to do his first single player record. He did the ER of czg2 in a time of 3:41. It's not as bad as he claims himself :)
• Daniel improved his own marathon through czg7 by 7 seconds to get a time of 3:06. Pretty good.
• Carl Tholin & Johan Nilsson did the ER of czg7a in 0:37. Fun run :)
• Carl And Johan also did the ER of czg7c in 0:26. Cool rocketboosts to the upper level.
• Nolan & Evan did the EH of czg7a in 2:59, 49 seconds than their previous record! This map is just amazing....great layout, beautiful textures, lotsa possible routes and very very good for coops.
• Daniel, Jonny & Fredrik did the ER of czg2 in 1:42. What a silly shambler at the end.....

Non CZG demos:

• Jozsef Szalontai improved his previous record on e4m8 by 2 seconds to get 0:46, equalling Ilkka's easy run!!!
• Timo Nieminen has taken over the 100%'s on e2m3. He did the EH 3 seconds faster than Justin to get a time of 1:17. Best newcomer I've seen in a while.
• Valeriy Burmistrov took the liberty of improving a record from the "Unbeatable Records" list. He did d207 in 0:09, beating his previous time with 1 second. Has anybody got the skills to do it in 0:08 ??
• Daniel Hansson did the ER of Lost World in 0:42
• Ken decided to do some running on the mexx levels which resulted in both the easy and nightmare 100%'s on mexx2.
• Robert Axelsson improved his previous nightmare run on d1m7 by 1 sec. to get 0:44. Hehe, it's great fun to watch those fast bunnies.
• Martin Selinus just managed to sneak in a few more demos for this update: He did both runs on bb4 in the time of 0:19, 1 sec. faster than Ilkka, and 0:19, 1 sec. faster than Marlo.
• He did a marathon through episode 3 on easy skill in the amazing time of 2:56. INSANE!
• And the last demo from him is the nightmare run of Hit The Roof in 0:45. Not bad.
• Nolan Pflug improved Stefan's old r1m7 NR record by 96 seconds!! to get a time of 1:35. Those fucking axes in the ceiling sucks major ass.
• Nolan & Evan did the NH of e4m3 in 3:46. Not much you can do to speed this map up, except for the end and getting to the first trigger as fast as possible.
• Daniel, Johhny & Fredrik did a 3 player ER of Networld in 1:04. This map is way too confusing...

Btw: please send your profiles to my new email address from now on thx :)

Sorry for the delay in getting up this ROTW, but it's up at the ROTW page now.

Note from Evan: Check out Sebastian Olsson's cheated demos on Quake Done Naked. Incredibly cool demos to say the least. If you don't believe me, watch his E4M7 cheated demo.

Note from Nolan: Stubby made me do everything else for this update :P

Update 9:55PM: The czg07progs that I oringally posted still had problems with crashing quake with No Free Edicts (the original progs were even worse). I've now got it so it should never happen again unless you try to gib every monster without pickup up any items! :) So redownload the czg07progs...

Attention everyone, both veteran runners and people who've never made demos before. It's time to show off the skills you may or may not have, by making some demos for the maps that I'm adding in this update. What better way to get your name and demo on SDA that to fill a hole in the tables, even if it is some slow time? The times that these maps might take will be long, because they're very big and have lots of monsters. FUN FUN!! :)

Anyway, the maps are the Insomnia pak by CZG; czg07a, czg07b, and czg07c. They were recently released and reviewed on teamshambler's site. Once I played through them, I whipped up the stats patch for them because I knew I wanted them on SDA. You can download the map pak here, but also download this progs.dat and use them instead of the one in the map pak. We've got a few demos already done on these maps:

• Evan ran czg07b in 0:39 on easy, 13 seconds faster than Shambler's 0:52.
• Evan also did the easy run of czg07c in 0:32, ten seconds faster than Shambler's 0:42.
• I did the nightmare 100% of czg07a in 6:56; 230 monsters :)
• Evan and I did a coop run on czg07b in 0:36.
• Evan and I did the easy 100% of czg07a in 3:48.

Since we already have czg04 here on SDA, I decided to add czg01 and czg02 as well. So that means 5 new maps filled with endless running possibilities! Oh, and you can do a marathon through the three czg07 maps too, if you're crazy (like me, I tried it). There's also still blank spots on the recently added Phantasmal Garrison map pak. To prevent sending in a demo that is slower than one already sent in, you should be sure to check the NPY section of my ftp to see what has been sent in already. (BTW, that stands for Not Posted Yet)

Now for all the demos that have been sent in recently:

• Daniel Magnusson improved his previous nightmare 100% marathon through the 1st episode by 57 seconds, to get 13:00.
• Martin Selinus improved Markus Taipale's easy run through the 4th episode by six seconds to get a time of 3:18.
• Daniel Hansson improved his recently done nightmare run of e2m4 by one second to get 0:56.
• Timo Nieminen has swooped in from somewhere to improve Peter Horvath's old nightmare 100% of e2m3 by 23 seconds, to get a nice time of 2:36.
• Martin Selinus improved his previous easy 100% of e4m2 by two seconds to get 1:09.
• Basil de Vries filled the hole for the nightmare run of pg3 in a time of 0:34, gettin an ogre to block those pesky bars at the end.
• Valeriy and Vlad Burmistrov improved R&R's easy 100% of pg4 by one second to get 0:06.
• Carl Tholin and Daniel Hansson improved a coop demo that Stefan and I did at speedcon, the easy 100% of e2m5, by five seconds, to get 0:51.
• Richard Skidmore shows that you can still play quake for long periods of time even if you are married and have an infant! He did the nightmare 100% through the entire PG episode in a time of 19:52.
• Jozsef Szalontai sent in lots of custom map demos:
  • Easy run of badland1 in 1:02, two seconds faster than Optic.
  • Easy run of bub2 in 0:12, one second faster than Fredrik Arvidsson.
  • Nightmare run of bub2 in 0:12 as well, and also one second faster than Fredrik.
  • Nightmare run of commctr in 0:39, four seconds faster than his previous demo.
  • Easy run of critters in 0:17, two seconds faster than Optic.
  • He did the nightmare run of critters in 0:17 as well, two seconds faster than Ilkka this time.
  • Easy run of earth in 0:55, four seconds faster than Optic.
  • Easy 100% of earth in 1:32, seven seconds faster than Optic.
  • Nightmare run of earth in 1:00, five seonds faster than [guess who].
  • Nightmare 100% of earth in 1:32, 15 seconds faster than... Optic? nope, faster than his previous demo.

Let's start the new year off with four id demos:

• Markus Taipale did the easy run of e4m4 in 0:20, improving his previous record with one second using a fish-grenade-jump. This is a must see!!

• Arturo aka Ken did the NH of pg4 in 0:24, but a few hours later we recieved a 0:22. Hmm it seems that no-one is actually listening to what we say at SDA....!!
• Nolan found time between his studies and his work on dzip to do a EH marathon in the time of 9:24. Quite good
• Robert & Rickard did three coops: pg1 ER in 1:21, pg2 ER in 1:25, pge ER in 0:05. Can this one be done faster?
• The MP-Crew has done a couple of coops too: pg1 5p ER in 1:07, pg1 5p EH in 1:47, pg4 4p EH in 0:06, pg4 4p NH in 0:13.
• Evan & Cameron did the EH of pg1 in 2:01.
• Mark & Daniel A did the EH of pg2 in 4:15.

On to the rest of the litter:

• Robert did the easy run of d1m7 in 0:40, 3 seconds faster than Stefan. I really enjoyed this demo.
• Robert & Rickard did the EH of Hit The Roof in 0:58.
• Richard Skidmore was crazy enough to do a marathon on nightmare skill through episode one of the Rogue pack in a time of 47:23.

Remember to check the profiles from time to time. There's been added quite a few.
And check out Quake Done Naked too. Lotsa cool demos to check out.

I'm 99% sure that I have fixed the cutscene bugs that were happening in the Phantasmal Garisson maps. If you dont want to redownload 3.2 MB again, well you can just downloading this patch. Now get running! Oh and if I haven't completely fixed it, just tell me so I can hit myself with a large object.

My ftp is back up, since I'm back on my phat college connection! I dont have most of the new demos in the npy section yet though...

Dzip v2.4 has been released! I barely got it finished in time for it to have a date of 01.01.01. The new version adds a cool new feature, which promises to make extracting of .dem files faster than its been. Its not actually in the program yet... but you'll see what I mean :) Check it out on the dzip page.
